My Pseudomyrmex colony

My small colony of Formica cf. subsericea.
Are there any small clear quarter sized petri style dishes that I could place over the queens I have been catching so I can get a good top view of them. In the test tube setup they seem to always be on the cotton, making it hard to get a good shot of them with my USB Camera so I can post them for some help identifying them...
Thanks for any ideas!

(The dark log, didn't allow for good macro images. But always still a pleasant site.)

I put down two pieces of raw macadamia outside a Pheidole nest, and the next thing I know, the Pheidole took over one piece.
While the Tetramorium bicarinatum the other, and fights erupted.
And then a single Pheidole major came out and smashed faces!
